Complete Question

Height of Dutch Men. Males in the Netherlands are the tallest, on average, in the world with an average height of 183 centimeters (cm) (BBC News website). Assume that the height of men in the Netherlands is normally distributed with a mean of 183 cm and standard deviation of 10.5 cm.a.What is the probability that a Dutch male is shorter than 175 cm?b.What is the probability that a Dutch male is taller than 195 cm?c.What is the probability that a Dutch male is between 173 and 193 cm?d.Out of a random sample of 1000 Dutch men, how many would we expect to be taller than 190 cm?

Answer:

a. 0.2231

b. 0.1266

c. 0.6591

d. 252 people

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using the z score formula of

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean = 183 cm

σ is the population standard deviation = 10.5 cm

a.What is the probability that a Dutch male is shorter than 175 cm?

This is interpreted as when x < 175 cm

Hence:

z = 175 - 183/10.5

z = -0.7619

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<175) = 0.22306

Approximately ≈ 0.2231

b.What is the probability that a Dutch male is taller than 195 cm?

This is interpreted as when x > 195 cm

Hence:

z = 195 - 183/10.5

z = 1.14286

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<195) = 0.87345

P(x>195) = 1 - P(x<195) = 0.12655

Approximately ≈ 0.1266

c.What is the probability that a Dutch male is between 173 and 193 cm?

For x = 173

z = 173 - 183/10.5

z = -0.95238

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 173) = 0.17045

For x = 193

Hence:

z = 193 - 183/10.5

z = 0.95238

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x= 193) = 0.82955

Hence, the probability that a Dutch male is between 173 and 193 cm

P(x = 193) - P(x = 173)

0.82955 - 0.17045

= 0.6591

d.Out of a random sample of 1000 Dutch men, how many would we expect to be taller than 190 cm?

This is interpreted as when x > 190 cm

Hence,

z = 190 - 183/10.5

= 0.66667

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<190) = 0.74751

P(x>190) = 1 - P(x<190)

= 0.25249

Therefore, the number of people we would expect to be taller than 190 cm is

Random number of samples × Probability

= 1000 × 0.25249

= 252.49 people

Approximately≈ 252 people

Answers

Answer:

a)  P  ( - 1.96  < Z < 1.96 )

b) P  ( - 2.58 < Z < 2.58)

c) P (  -0.995  < Z < 0.995 )

d) P  ( - z  <  Z  < z )     =  P ( ( Z ± 3σ )   then that is close to 1

Step-by-step explanation:

a)  P  ( - z  <  Z  < z )     =   P  ( - 1.96  < Z < 1.96 )

CI = 95 %   significance level  α  = 5 %   α  = 0.05    α/2 = 0.025

z = 1.96

b)  P  ( - z  <  Z  < z )     =   P  ( - 2.58 < Z < 2.58)

CI = 99 %   significance level  α  = 1 %   α  = 0.01    α/2 = 0.005

z = 2.58

c) P  ( - z  <  Z  < z )     =   P (  -0.995  < Z < 0.995 )

CI = 68 %   significance level  α  = 32 %   α  = 0.32    α/2 = 0.16

z ≈ 0.9954

We interpolate in this case

1             ⇒  0.1587

0.99      ⇒  0.1611

0.01    ⇒   0.0024        

 x       ⇒    0.0013       x  =  0.01 *0.0013  /  0.0024  

x =  0.005416

and    z =  0.99 + 0.005416

z = 0.9954

d) P  ( - z  <  Z  < z )     =   P (  - 0.00 < Z < 0. 00)

CI = 0.9973 %   significance level  α  = 0.0027 %   α  = 0.000027             α/2 = 0.0000135

z = 0.00003375     ⇒ z = 0.00

NOTE: The value of α  is too small. The Empirical Rule establishes that 99.7 % of all values in a normal distribution fall in the interval ( Z ± 3σ)

that means all the values. Then the probability of finding the random variable between that range is close to 1 and we can not find in tables a number to approximate just with only two decimal places

If 82 pages had between 7 and 9 errors, what was the approximate total number of pages in the book?

A: 202 pages

B: 120 pages

C: 68 pages

D: 56 pages

Answers

Answer:

120 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean number of error per page = 8 ; Standard deviation = 1

Given that :

82 pages has between 7 and 9 errors per page ;

Using the empirical rule :

7 = 8 - 1 = 1 standard deviation below the mean

9 = 8 + 1 = 1 standard deviation above the mean

1 standard deviation from the mean = 68%

Hence, 82 pages = 68%

Approximate total pages :

68% = 82

100% = total pages, x

0.68 = 82

1 = x

0.68x = 82

x = 82 / 0.68

x = 120.588

Hence, total number of pages is 120 pages

Answers

Answer:  0

=========================================================

Explanation:

Let's say that point A is at (0,0) and B is somewhere else on the parabola.

I'll make point B go to the right of point A.

For now, let's say B is at (4,16).

If we compute the slope of line AB, then we find the average rate of change (AROC). The AROC in this case is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (16-0)/(4-0) = 16/4 = 4. Because point A is at (0,0), we're really just computing y/x where the x,y values come directly from point B.

--------------

Now let's move B to (3,9). If we used the slope formula again, we would get the slope of 3. Note how y/x = 9/3 = 3.

Then let's move B to (2,4). The AROC is now y/x = 4/2 = 2

As B gets closer to A, the AROC is decreasing. The AROC is slowly approaching the IROC (instantaneous rate of change).

--------------

Point B is generally located at (x,x^2) for any real number x. Keeping A always fixed at the origin, the slope of line AB is y/x = (x^2)/x = x.

What does this all mean? It means that if x = 0, then the IROC is 0. You might be quick to notice that we cannot divide by zero. So instead of letting x be zero itself, we'll just get closer and closer to it. This is where the concept of limits come into use. This is what calculus is based on (both integral and differential calculus).

Anyway, when calculating the IROC, we're really calculating the slope of the tangent line to the f(x) curve. Refer to the diagram below.

----------------

In short, the slope of the tangent line at x = 0 is m = 0. We have a flat horizontal line that touches the parabola at (0,0).

Paige and her family went to the movies. They bought 4 tickets and paid $12 for popcorn. They spent $40. How much did each ticket cost?

I need equation and cost :)

Answers

Answer:

Cost of tickets: $7. Equation: 40 = 4x + 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

4*t +12 = 40

Each ticket cost 7 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

tickets + popcorn = total cost

4*t +12 = 40

Subtract 12 from each side

4t +12-12 = 40-12

4t = 28

__

The angle marked 40° and the one marked y are "alternate interior angles" with respect to the parallel lines and the diagonal that crosses them. As such, they have the same measure:

  y = 40°

__

The angle marked 100° and the sum of angles in the lower right corner are "corresponding" angles, so have the same measure. That is ...

The normal range of pulse rates of adults is typically given as 60 to 100 beats per minute. If the range rule of thumb is applied to that normal range, the result is a standard deviation of 10 beats per minute. Use the sample results with a 0.10 significance level to test the claim that pulse rates of men have a standard deviation equal to 10 beats per minute.a. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses.

χ² = [(n-1) * s²] ÷ σ²

Sample size, n = 44 ; sample Standard deviation, s = 10.7 ; population standard deviation, σ = 10

χ² = [(44 - 1) * 10.7²] ÷ 10²

Gasoline sells for 1.3 euros per liter. What is the price in US dollars per gallon? (recall that 1 gal = 3.785 L)

British pound is 1.212 to 0.8251 USD

Answers

4.67 $/gal is the price of gasoline.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Price of gasoline = 1.3 €/L

1 gallon is equals to 3.785 Liters

1 euros is equals to  0.9497 US dollars

To find:

The price of gasoline in US dollars per gallon

Solution:

Price of the gasoline = 1.3 €/L

[tex]1 gal = 3.785 L\\1L=\frac{1}{3.785} gal\\ 1.3 euro /L=\frac{1.3 euro }{\frac{1}{3.785 }gal}\\=\frac{1.3 euro \times 3.785 }{1 gal}=4.9205 euro /gal[/tex]

Now convert euros to US dollars by using :

1 euros = 0.9497 $

The price of gasoline in US dollar per gallons:

[tex]4.9205 euro/gal=4.9205 \times 0.9497 \$/gal\\=4.6730 \$/gal\approx 4.67 \$/gal[/tex]

 "twice as many nickels as dimes"     means    N =2D     [eq1]

 "collection of nickels and dimes is worth $25"    means

        5N + 10D = 2500      [eq2]

   (To avoid using decimal points, PLZ express everything in cents.)

Substitution   (substitute N from eq1 into eq2]:

     5(2D) + 10D = 2500

      10D + 10D = 2500

          20D = 2500

            D = 125
